[quote=Anonymous]We always give $100 each, so $200 as a couple. When we were married last year, I would say our close older family (aunts, uncles, very very close friends of parents) have $1000. Less close but still close family/friends of parents ages have $250-500. Friends our age, surprisingly, gave very cheap gifts from the registry or in many cases nothing. Some of the better off ones gave $100. We didn’t really mind though, we are just happy they came. No one should expect to break even at their wedding, it’s an expense. And hell NO should you decide how much to give depending on how fancy the wedding is! If anything give more to the inexpensive wedding because the couple Probably paid themselves, but at fancy weddings it’s usually covered by parents. [/quote]
